Analog/RF Test Engineer

SoC San Jose, California

Responsibilities:

Work with design, validation, and product engineering team members to develop production test solutions for innovative high-speed PHY products.
Develop test methods and generate/convert test vectors to support production and characterization test on the high-speed products.
Sustain existing ATE programs /Bench test scripts and make improvements to reduce test time.
Work with planning and product engineering to support customer sampling requirements.
Develop production-worthy high speed hardware (board/socket) which involves working with Simulation/Design teams to close the signal integrity simulation to meet the required high speed performance.
Define the DFT requirements for next generation advanced node products working with design teams to achieve high test coverage at low cost of test.
Provide test sustaining support for existing/legacy high run-rate products.
Target product cost reduction efforts through test time reduction and multisite testing.

Qualifications:

Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering with a proven track record of product development to high volume production.
5-8 years’ experience on SERDES/RF IC test development.
Experience on Keysight/Anritsu bench test equipment (BERT, Scope, VNA, PNA, spectrum analyzer and peripherals).
Expert knowledge of C/C++/Python software environments. Ability to independently lead the test-development effort within the organization.
Good understanding of characterization techniques and test development fundamentals for mixed-signal ICs in the 100 MHz to 100 GHz operating frequency.

Desired Skills:

High Speed Test experience with software background is a plus.
ATE experience preferably Advantest 93K and Teradyne UFlex is a plus.
Proven record of accomplishment of test engineering for high-speed SERDES and RF products with some bench test experience.
Experience with test bench equipment, including, but not limited to BERTs, High Speed Oscilloscopes, Network Analyzers, Spectrum Analyzers, programmable power supplies.
Labview, Python, PERL, C/C++, CVI (test-code development, support and data manipulation).
